Most Nutritious Foods

Jan 04, 2013

I just spent the last couple of hours doing some research on the top healthiest foods based on information I found on the site The Worlds Healthiest Foods (http://www.whfoods.com/nutrientstoc.php) from their page called Essential Nutrients in the Worlds Healthiest Foods. Based on My findings all of these foods have the top amounts of at least 6 of the essential nutrients and one has 11. Oh and the good news is they are all WLS friendly. In descending order:

1. Spinach

2. Soybeans

3. Venison

4. Swiss Chard

5. Sardines

6. Halibut

7. Collard Greens

8. Beef

9. Yogurt

10. Turkey

11. Sesame Seeds

12. Salmon

13. Lima Beans

14. Lentils

Rounding out the next tier (5 top nutrients) Turnip Greens, Tuna, Shrimp, Scallops, Milk, Lamb, Garbanzo Beans, and Eggs.

I will definitely be eating more of these foods on regular basis. I think I will try to eat Spinach every day and every way possible.

When I have time I will do more research to see what combinations I can come up with to cover more of the categories and see if I can't come up with a dish or menu that would be nutritionally complete.
